Ace Whitehead and the Texas Longhorn baseball team dominated the East Carolina University Pirates in game three of the superregional late Sunday night.
The Longhorns won 11-1 to punch their ticket to Omaha and the College World Series.
The dominant win in game three took almost 10 hours to complete after a weather delay stopped play in the top of the first inning with Texas up 4-0.
